Boston comedian Bill Burr takes a drive around Phoenix and gives his observations. Very funny. I love this town but you can't argue with his obsevations - "it's the same 12 stores over and over again!"

Meh. That was 16 minutes long and less than a minute of it was actually him talking about Phoenix, and when he was, he was just making fun of people.

I must be really bored because I watched the whole thing!

This is true and Bill acknowledges this in the video. He says it's because there is nothing to do or see in Phoenix. I have to agree but I live here for the cheap cost of living, scenic outdoors and good weather, not tourist attractions.

"This is the America that Trump connected with" -- Not where he's driving.

If one's focus is on retail and nothing else in just about any city/metro in the US, I suppose that's true. It's like driving around NYC and saying "I see the same yellow cab over and over again". Superficial viewing/observations creates superficial conclusions I suppose so we shouldn't be surprised.

Billy....stick to your brand of ticked off/angry standup gig.

It's not even a video remotely about Phoenix. He could have been ANYWHERE, and he was just using his car to rant about other random stuff, and make fun of fat people. Fail.

The butt hurt in this thread is awesome. Gotta love Ole Billy Blue Balls. He drove around downtown and South Phoenix.
